18310 Enterprise Ave. Nashville, IL 62263. Dear Mr. Dahlquist, Mr. Evilsizer, and Ms. Zapp: Thank you for your letter to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regarding the recordkeeping regulation contained in 29 CFR Part 1904 - Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses.
In the Persian Gulf alone, the US has major bases in every country save Iran. There is an increasingly important, increasingly large base in Djibouti, just miles across the Red Sea from the Arabian Peninsula.
Elsewhere in the Gulf, the military expanded its naval presence at a former British base in Bahrain, housing its Fifth Fleet there. Major air power installations were built in Qatar, and US operations were expanded in Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman.
